The Offspring - Conspiracy Of One
*Important!* This is my own interpretation
of the song, and is not ripped off from a
music book etc.
What a mad song! It just had to be tabbed, and is pretty
easy, but it pretty fast. Conspiracy Of One? Haven't a
clue what it's about, but it rocks. Check out the pictures
on the album cover - wierd. Anyway enjoy.
Tuning:- Regular;

[Notice this part is the same as the intro]
*********************Play Verse**********************
This time the verse is the same, but the two sets of
lyrics are swapped round in a fiendish ploy to make
it sound like there's more words. But there's not.
The guitar part is exactly the same, except there's
no pick slide into the chorus.
*********************Play Chorus**********************
Now this is different. Play it normally until Dexter
sings "Conspiracy of One", then repeat the chorus again,
skipping the bit that is the same as the intro.
Second time through when you get to "Conspiracy of one,
again skip the bit that's the same as the intro, and go
to the middle 8. (You'll know what mean when you listen
to the track)
*********************Middle 8*************************
Guess what? - Distorted Guitar!

*********************Play Chorus**********************
Play the chorus like you did the second time, but instead
of cutting to the middle 8, cut to the outro.
